If any of The Flash's cast members deserves a round of applause, it's most certainly Tom Cavanagh. Ever since dazzling us with season 1's Harrison Wells, who really turned out to be Eobard Thawne AKA the Reverse-Flash, he followed up that nuanced performance with various other Wells from parallel universes like Harry, H.R. and Sherloque.
Right now, it's more difficult than one would think to decide on which DC show will be affected most by "Crisis on Infinite Earths." On the one hand, you have Supergirl likely finding her universe meshing with that of Earth-1's. But on the other, Arrow's eighth and final season is essentially serving as a prelude of sorts to the crossover event.
While we may be waiting for a full gallery of images taken from the premiere episode of Arrow's eighth and final season, we've at least been given something of the sort to tide us over. Thanks to TV Line, we're able to share a new photo of Oliver Queen, John Diggle and Laurel Lance - and they're each wearing their new costumes in it.
When it comes to the comic book medium, there tend to be a handful of standout titles readers often regard as being akin to holy writ. More often than not, two of the most highly acclaimed contributions to the industry are swiftly referenced whenever a conversation such as this arises, and they're both products of the 1980's. These are, of course, Watchmen and Batman: The Dark Knight Returns.
Now that some time has gone by since the public at large learned how Spider-Man is no longer part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, I'd think they've had time to calm down. Then again, the notion of how the current live action Peter Parker can't make mention of his late mentor, Tony Stark, is quite vexing when you think about it, so we may have to wait longer for tempers to soothe.
It really did take some time getting here, but the followup to 2016's Suicide Squad sure is coming together nicely. After raking in serious dough at the box office - not to mention all those dollars coming by way of merchandising - you'd think Warner Bros. would've gotten the ball rolling sooner, but they do have other film franchises to worry about.
Even though we've got less than two years to go before The Batman storms cinemas, nobody can help pondering what lies beyond that. After all, we're discussing a character that's endured for eighty years in multiple forms of media and shows no signs of slowing down. And when it comes to the movie side of things, he's been recast, sequelized and rebooted numerous times over since 1943, so it's no wonder that followups are already being discussed.
If you're a longtime reader of DC Comics, then you're aware of how someone other than Bruce Wayne assuming the mantle of Batman is nothing new. Whether it be Dick Grayson, Damian Wayne, Jim Gordon, Jean-Paul Valley or Terry McGinnis, there are a variety of books and cartoons out there showing us what it's like when a new Dark Knight is tasked with protecting Gotham.
Even after a second trailer for Todd Phillips' Joker movie dropped just days ago, the public at large still doesn't know what to make of the picture. And in my view, that's a good thing because it actually has people talking. If there's one thing we can say for certain about this flick, it's that it sure as hell isn't your usual comic book movie.
Back when I was a kid, Scooby-Doo and the gang went up against foes who were corrupt real estate developers in elaborate costumes. Save for maybe The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo, that standard held true until the day when these beloved characters began facing off with actual supernatural entities.
